The seminar titled “Beyond the Weeping Walls: The Evolution of Women’s Voices in the Theatre of War” highlighted the underrepresented yet powerful role of women in times of conflict, particularly in how their voices have evolved from being silenced to becoming central narratives in theatre and literature. Organized by the Department of English at LCW , and conducted by Prof. Dr. Fatima Syeda, Chairperson Department of English at FCCU, the event brought students and faculty to explore how war impacts women and how women, in turn, reshape war narratives.
Dr Syeda talked on how theatre and literature become mediums through which women’s trauma, resilience, and agency are foregrounded. And how from ancient epics to modern drama, women’s voices have shifted from being “weeping walls” to becoming “speaking walls”.
Dr Syeda traced the trajectory of Women voices from Hecuba in ancient Troy to modern playwrights and activists who have continuously reshaped these narratives. The voices of women transform from lamentation to resistance, proving that even in destruction, women’s resilience becomes a foundation for empowerment and memory.
